Recipe: Roasted Red Pepper Chili

Hey y’all!  I’m so excited to share one of my favorite recipes today.  I’ve mentioned before that DG is a pretty picky eater, so I’m constantly on the hunt for recipes that I will like but that I can con get him to eat.  When I stumbled across this recipe last year, I knew we’d both be pleased.

Ingredients:

  • 1  jar (24 ounces) roasted red peppers
  • 1 green pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeno, diced
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 pound lean ground beef (I used turkey)
  • 1 can sodium reduced black beans
  • 1 (10 ounce) can of diced tomatoes with green chiles (do not drain)
  • 2 (8 ounce) cans no salt added tomato sauce
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • TOPPERS: avocado, cheese, sour cream, plain yogurt

Directions:

*I’ve done this two different ways, I’ve done steps 1 & 2 and then thrown everything into the crockpot for 4 hours.  And I’ve done it the way listed below.  The way I have listed below is our favorite.
 
1. Heat a large pot over medium heat.  Either spray with cooking spray or drizzle with olive oil, and place in red peppers through garlic powder in the pot.  Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion is tender.
2. Add in the ground beef or turkey.  Let brown for 6 minutes until it starts to crumble.
3. Stir in remaining ingreidents and allow to simmer for 15 minutes to 2 hours.  The longer it simmers, the more the flavors come out.
4. Pour into bowls, add your desired toppings, and enjoy!
